Cashless World to the Benefit of World’s Central Banksters

The long-time globalist ideal of a cashless world is moving forward, inspired ironically by a digital currency designed as an alternative toprivate usury banks. The Bank for International Settlements, whose members include 60 nations’ central banks, issueda report in December urging its component banks to consider this idea, and several seem eager to embrace the possibility.

“Perhaps central bank money is ripe for its great technological leap forward,” said Andrew Haldane, chief economist for the Bank of England, in a September 18, 2015 speech on the issue.

Particularly important for Haldane was using such a currency to enforce negative interest rates, which can be evaded now by withdrawing physical cash.

The issue is being pushed particularly strongly in Europe by Jonathan Dharmapalan, whose electronic currency mint company based in Dublin,Ireland is marketing digital currency technology to central banks. According to Dharmapalan, heis currently in discussion with 30 central banks about his technology, and two banks are preparing to issue his cashless currency.

The United States Constitution says that “Congress shall have power . . . to coin money, regulate the value thereof” and that U.S. states “shall use no legal tenderbut gold and silver.” These clauses were adopted as a specific rejection of the Bank of England,founded in 1694, that had dominated the English-American economy before the American revolt of 1774-1783.

However, global bankers who threaten theworld with usury have caused that clause of the Constitution to become a dead letter. In 1913, theworld’s banks—most of them affiliated with the Rothschild family—met in Georgia at Jekyll Islandto create the Federal Reserve System. While the old American financial system depended on a central mint and a patchwork of disorderly localbanks, the new system quickly made the U.S. Treasury Department obsolete, acting as avacuum cleaner to suck up the money of America’s working people.

The Federal Reserve transitioned the U.S. from a commodity-based currency system to a fiat system. But instead of a state fiat system,where the bank is owned by the state and currency volume is determined by tax and spendingpolicy, the Federal Reserve is a private system in which currency volume is determined by interest rates. Banks create money by loaning it into existence,instead of issuing it, and then allow interest compounding to draw all of the wealth in the system into their hands.

In Europe, the failure of continental socialism has led to declining standards of living, like in the U.S. under Obama. Rather than addressthe problem, with its roots in cultural demoralization, the European Central Bank and its componentsare trying to stimulate the economy with negative interest rates. Every month, rather than pay interest, banks take money from their customers’accounts. The theory is that this forces people to spend money. But, really the insecuritythat it creates forces consumers to abandon the banking system, withdrawing money in cash.

Hence the interest in digital currency. In aworld where there is no cash, people must use the banking system to buy and sell, and then thesesame people have to accept negative interest rates. More concerning, if a central bank wants tosimply confiscate all money, people would have no choice but to have their accounts drained, because there would be nothing in them but numbers.There would be no actual currency or a commodity like gold.

Ironically, Bitcoin—which is an interest-freecurrency issued by no one in particular—has shown that digital currency can work. In the past,when people have tried issuing private currencies backed by silver and gold, like the liberty dollar,governments have forcefully confiscated the money and arrested its users. Bitcoin, however, lacking a central repository, cannot be so easilyshut down. This is why governments want to clone its novel digital identity, issuing somethingthat looks like bitcoin while restoring to it the usury that makes them rich.

One Response to Cashless World to the Benefit of World’s Central Banksters

Even 20 years ago many would call this conspiracy, and now it is open, touted knowledge that the elite do exist and control our lives. They blatantly usurped the Constitution, and now openly shove it into our faces. Listen, it’s real easy, stop paying the feds, and stop doing their bidding.
